Augmenting Rehabilitation Outcomes and Functional Neuroplasticity Using Epidural Stimulation of Cervical Spinal Cord

ESS will be delivered using The CoverEdgeX 32 Surgical Lead at frequencies of 0.2 to 60 Hz with intensity up to 10 mA, adjusted to induce motor threshold responses in the target muscle for the above motor task (e.g., biceps brachii for elbow flexion) \[31-33\]. The ESS controller will only be operated by trained study team members. Therefore, stimulation will only be delivered during study visits. Stimulation will be administered for a maximum duration of 1 hour total per visit, varying according to the individual's tolerance and fatigue levels, with 5 - 10 minutes breaks interspersed between intervals of stimulation.
